If you're going to take a huge break like that, at least make the second half of the season worthwhile.

Of course it's still good, but I was literally waiting for another episode a week later - didn't even realized I watched the season finale.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

The voice acting is already done so it just the animation and production (that’s already started) that needs to be done. I would guess late winter/next spring.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

The animation on this series is bottom of the barrel even by Western standards. It's clear they spent the entire budget on the Hollywood voice cast and musical soundtrack.

But it's been quite successful for Amazon. They renewed this for another two seasons, guaranteeing at least six seasons.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Same here until I read your post. This season was good but the splitting and the time between seasons, yikes.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Very meta teaser. Nice to hear that there will be no mid-season break.

Reviews are pretty stellar

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Watched the first episode of the new seadon and thought it was really good.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Watched the first three episodes. It’s still as good as every and the end of episode three took me by surprise.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Damn. Episode 4 was intense with regard to what Mark had to do.

Seth Rogan as Allen always makes me laugh.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

The first half of episode 4 was some of the best stuff the show has done.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

That opening sequence of the new episodes was fucking gross. :lol:

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Wow. That was a dark episode. Oof

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Almost every episode this season has been.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Holy shit this 7th episode.

Fuck! That one death. :sad:

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

It’s OK. It’s comics. No one stays dead forever, right?

I can’t believe we’re at Conquest already. Next episode is going to be intense

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Dammmmmmmmmn, what a finale!

Just realized it's Negan vs Glenn again

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Holy shit this episode is insane.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

I know it's just 8 episodes but the season still just flew by. Honestly I kind of wish they would shorten the fights to advance the story more. I've seen Mark get the crap beaten out of him and him beating the crap out of people more than enough. I did like the confessional though.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

The Conquest fight took 3-4 issues, if I remember right, so they DID shorten that one. I remember a letter column at the end of that arc that was Kirkman addressing how monthly issues weren't "offering enough value" when there's barely any dialogue and he said it's not just the writing, but readers should admire the art. Obviously that doesn't apply as much to the animation on the show.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Thought season 3 was far better than season 2. I liked the addition of Oliver more than I expected and happy they kind of sidelined Mark's dopey non-hero friends. They telegraphed that one hero's death a little too much.

I wish the episodes were broken up into more regular 30-minute chunks we've gotten from animation in the past. I think it would tighten up the show's experience. 12 episodes running shorter would have been better.

Not sure I fully get Invincible's obsession with brutal graphic violence. The show resorts to it so often that it loses much of its effect.

Kirkman has apparently said they are planning season 4 to showcase a storyline he didn't write into the comic but wanted.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Yeah, it's the post-credits scene. That never happened in the comics, and that storyline will be fleshed out next season.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Oh I definitely thought he was referring to

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

I'm finally finishing up the current season and holy cow the death of

giant surprise for me and the accidental death of the woman and baby by that Electro guy caused was heartbreaking.

This season has been incredible.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Last season was a huge improvement over the preceding season.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Just finished watching season 3. Wow, that fight with Conquest was brutal. It made the Superman vs. Zod fight in Man of Steel look like a minor squabble in terms of collateral damage to innocent bystanders.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

that was a terrible teaser.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

It's a running gag.

This hell episode is hilarious rotfl

Bruce Campbell :up:

Never thought I would hear a Slayer song on a TV show.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

I'm not particularly squeamish but the ending of the last fight with Conquest had me wincing.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Holy shit that was quite the solution to Viltrum. :eek:

Lee Pace delivers .....:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

Well that was certainly a choice Mark had to make.

Re: Invincible (Amazon): animated series based on the comic by Robert Kirkman
 

About the only choice he could have made. He gets what 15-16 years before any of the children get powers? Plus some of those aliens are to proud to mate and some of the women don’t seem like the motherly types.
